Winter is upon us..
Tis the season of hats, mittens, gloves, snow pants, boots and coats. Please, put your child's initials or first name in their winter clothing and boots. This will help to keep all this extra clothing on their body and off someone elses:) Each year, there are numerous identical gloves, boots, hats, jackets, and snow pants. As you can imagine, when it's time to go out to recess, kiddos are frantically sorting through a mass of clothing looking for their things, a task made much easier if things clearly marked. Not to mention the cost of having to replace lost items because children mistakenly take others clothing thinking it is theirs.
